A pastor at heart, Chuck has served as senior pastor to congregations in Texas, Massachusetts, and California.

Rev Swindoll has been my spiritual leader for over two decades even though we have never met. His radio broadcast and books has been of great help and inspiration to me, so for me it was one more to my collections, and I must say that it is just super. Thank you
